Libreria Acqua Alta in Venice, Italy.

A memorable store in a memorable city, Acqua Alta is a small shop full of books that fall off gondolas, bathtubs, and small boats all over the city. Feel free to dip your feet in the canal as you read, or climb a set of steps entirely made of old books.

Cook & Book in Brussels, Belgium.

Many bookstores also include a coffee shop but none like this one. The shop is divided into nine rooms, each room contains a different genre of books and has its own special design to match.

Brattle Book Shop in Boston, Massachusetts.

One of the largest antiquarian book shops in the US, the Brattle Book Shop was founded in 1825 and offers a unique experience of outdoor bookstalls. If it’s a bit too cold or hot outside, you are more than welcome to go inside and see the other three levels of the bookstore.

Librairie Ptyx in Brussels, Belgium.

A monument to all things art from both inside and out, you'll have a really hard time not noticing this amazing shop. The books here are carefully curated and the art on the walls pays homages to famous writers from all over the world.

The Last Bookstore in Downtown Los Angeles, California.

Welcome to another world, full of enormous pillars, bright lights, and a huge mix of new, old and used books. The upstairs section of the store is a paradise for book lovers where everything is just 1$.

Cafebrería El Péndulo in Mexico City, Mexico.

I have mentioned before the common mix of coffee shops and bookstores, but this store takes the idea to a new level with a combination of a coffee shop, a bookstore and a greenhouse. The place is full of natural light and vegetation so you won't even feel like you are in a bookstore as you sit there and read while throwing back some mojitos.
